Volkswagen Club of Pakistan (VWCOP)

Lets all contribute pics and memories to this timeless classic that has faithfully served generations. It is my 1st car memory and my dad who is a Beetle enthusiast at one time had a total of 4 beetles in our garage Here's a little history of this miraculous German wonder: 'The history of the Beetle really goes back to pre 2nd world war Germany when Ferdinand Porsche had a vision of a mass produced vehicle that was affordable to the average German, an idea that was shared with the young Adolf Hitler who himself could not drive, but was a car fanatic. Hitler was apparently influenced by the achievements of Henry Ford and his production lines - reading Ford's biography while in prison during 1923. Porsche had previously worked on some other small cars that used many elements later to be included in the Beetle. The Type 32 prototype NSU of 1934 was an air-cooled rear engined four cylinder horizontally opposed powered car that used torsion bar suspension and featured beetle-like styling.' --- source - Google.co.uk lets keep the posts rolling - add pics of bugs you've owned or own! I'll add my dad's bug family pics as well ... I guess he fell in love with this oddly shaped car after he drove it down to Pakistan from Germany!!!! .. stories of that wonderous journey keep us entertained whenever our family gets together

@ASAD!!!! what have you done? This guy, by his own admission, is just into one night stands! Whats going to happen to the poor Bulli afterwards?
You have a lot to answer for in the hereafter my child!
Maybe plan B would have been a better option, kya khayal hai? hmm?

@buksh
trust me, this time it'll be different,.. she'll tear out your heart! let me know when you and her get back from your individual honneymoons.

1. A car is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it, 2. Resale wont save your life in an accident, 3. Genius has limits, stupidity has none, 4. Never argue with an idiot, they will bring you down to their level & beat you with experience, 5. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young! 6. انّا للہ و انّا الیہ راجعون

beetle crisis will be on Discovery in about an hour (right now it's 5th gear, then chop shop, then beetle crisis).

BTW this show will be more about 'legends racing" instead of beetles.

Hi Asad, I approve of your 'initiation' of Buksh, lets hope its not a short term scenario. Constant queries about availability of non VW metal by him (and Safeer!) makes me wonder what their long term plans are. :-)
When are you visiting the VW scene in Isb?

I have asked Buksh to make any changes easily reversible, lets hope he complies. I plan to hunt down a few more bits for him so he cannot come up with excuses like 'had to graft in a Civic handle cause the RHS handle was missing'.

The Isb plan was a tie up with a good friend of mine. Would ask him how he intends to go about it.
